  1. It's pretty much a tablet but you use the TV as the screen. Load apps from the playstore or you can skollie load apps from the internet. Most will come with some stuff like the M-Net app pre loaded and pretty much all will have netflix pre loaded. I even run Rouvy on mine. Well. not anymore but I can.
  2. Someone knows his surfing trivia
  3. There's a place up the west coast that the gut sliders have made their own called Tand. OH....MY......GOODNESSSSS!!!!!
  4. Red Bull did a thing recently on surfing in SA. Frankie and his son getting PROPERLY barreled at (not so secret spot in front of the caravan park) in Scotborough and Happy Wanderers. I still think the KZN South Coast has some of the best unexploited surf on the planet. We all want to go on a boat in Indo but the there are gems right here.
  5. If you buy one of those you won't have a problem with your wife hating your cycling anymore. She'll definitely leave.
  6. If it's not in Zwift is it even real?
  7. I don't think we should discriminate here.
  8. Kneelo. Same Session.

    Trick question. When last did the Tech3 team win at the highest level? Remember they've had former WSBK champions Ben Spies, Colin Edwards and James Toseland as well as a few real hot prospects riding their bikes so they have always been a good team.
  10. Me at Elands a few weeks ago.
  11. Some people have been on it with spades in the past few weeks. But a little maintenance couldn't hurt. The DH boys will have your nuts if you go anywhere near the race line with a spade tho.
  12. We were there yesterday arvo. So much fun.
  13. Ja. R92. but you have to have an ID or drivers license on you. The lady at the gate won't accept your accent as proof of being a South African. It's R300+ if you are a non south african We ride into the reserve a few times a year and there's always 3 busses in your view no matter what. But yesterday was amazing. It has to rate in one of my all time top 10 rides.
  14. To the reserve. I'm not one to punt something just because I've done it but guys. IF YOU ARE IN THE VICINITY OF CAPE TOWN GO RIDE IN THE RESERVE!!!!! Never in our lifetimes will we have it like this again. No tour buses and no tourists. The only people in there are the surfers and the other cyclists. We got overtaken by 2 cars the entire time we were in there. It's AMAZING right now. The roadworks are complete and your chances of spotting a bokkie are MUCH higher. It's R92 but remember to take ID cos the R92 is for SA citizens. If you roll from Fishhoek your out and back will be about 60km. Keep an eye out for whales.
  15. So yesterday I got struck down with a violent case of the sharts so no test ride. Anyways. Just did a little burn now. I'm not so sure what the fuss is all about hey. They are much stiffer than my old wheels. The freehub sounds like a machine gun and they are 800 grams lighter than my old wheels. The carbon rolling makes a very distinctive sound and the 25mm tires run wider than they did on the stock Giant wheels. They also seem to pick up speed MUCH faster than the stock wheels. They also make my bike look SICK! Meh.
  16. Exactly. I was surfing there when I was a teenager. Which was a long long long long time ago. Tony might have scored the trifecta this week. I can't confirm or deny for fear of reprisals from deep south Soul Surfers. Who drive SUV's and wives shop at Woolies. But us townies mustn't point it out.
  17. Win 10. laptop with ANT. BT worked fine (apart from my HR monitor) until a windows update broke it. Same story with both of my laptops. I tried to roll back the update and install different BT drivers but still no dice. I've read a few forums that spoke about some bluetooth speakers conking out after a windows update so I have to assume my issue is related. Anyway. Bought an ANT goodie and I've had zero issues since.
  18. I don't get the localism thing either. Sure on the North Shore or J Bay where if you don't know your stuff it can be very dangerous and potentially fatal. Anyways. My other half looooves Elands. We've been up there 3 times together and I've scored every time. My ex wife was not that keen on the beach towards the end of our time together. But to be fair she did spend many an afternoon sitting in a car at Witsands with only the baboons for company. Poor girl.
  19. When she gets a 2nd cellphone "for emergencies" you need to get a lawyer.
  20. Rant mode enabled Tony and I surfed in the reserve on the weekend. Tony being tony immediately puts his drone in the air. Some plonker comes over and gets all antsy about it. (useless surfer bum accent) Aye bruu. we like to keep this spot on the down low please keep your footage off social media. HELLLOOOOOO!!! IT'S 2020. Ever heard of google earth? And..... Erm..... Blackrocks is not a secret spot. I've surfed in Indo and I've done MANY trips to j-bay (my folks retired there) and kzn and I get subjected to localism in my home fkin town.
  21. I've seen a lot of those high end Nike's floating around the woolies in my area. Buying Pre made meals for junior is hard work and you need the shoes to match.
  22. Hahaha. My ex used to tell me I need to go for a surf.
  23. Hectic. I can't run in the dark without lights. I was zip tying my bike light to a hydration pack but now I run with a gopro chesty and the light on that. It works a treat. But you can get a cheapie headlamp for next to nothing.
  24. I will. I'm frothing to get on the road and see what's what. The stock wheels weigh more than my car and the mavic something or others I had on were basically the same as the stock wheels with a bit of yellow. They are Prime. CRC's inhouse brand. A mate of mine was selling his TCR (Not the one pictured) and it came with the wheels. My BIL was looking for a road bike so we did a bit of a 3 way deal. No France trip this year so it's wheel upgrade time. I know that's quite probably the most common TCR colorway of all time but to me somehow mine looks a little bit better than the others. It could be that all of the others are still running that siff white bartape.
